Receipts for Corn Bread made of Southern Indian Meal.
Johnny Cake.
1 teacupful sweet milk.
1 teacupful buttermilk.
1 teaspoonful salt.
1 teaspoonful soda.
1 tablespoonful melted butter.
Enough meal to enable you to roll it into a sheet half an inch thick. Spread upon a buttered tin, or in a shallow pan, and bake forty minutes. As soon as it begins to brown, baste it with a rag tied to a stick and dipped in melted butter. Repeat this five or six times until it is brown and crisp. Break—not cut it up—and eat for luncheon or tea, accompanied by sweet or buttermilk.
